The silence of the Bolsonaro supporters.

By Leandro Fortes, from Journalists for Democracy - Little by little, they are disappearing. Old friends full of self-righteousness, furious relatives, bullying neighbors, ladies made up with hatred, are all silent, on the brink of the abyss.

There are no more toy guns in their hands, nor any more whining on social media. Even the "hahaha" fans hide in timidity. Here and there, a few drums of hatred beat, carried by a handful of fanatics, but not even the most savage anti-PT (Workers' Party) supporters find the strength to defend the indefensible.

They are not repentant; repentance requires a moral strength far removed from the personality of most of Bolsonaro's voters. They are merely paralyzed, faced with the successive shattering of expectations related to the brave new world that was being heralded.

There are super-ministers with useless superpowers. Paulo Guedes is more rude than calculating. Sergio Moro, it is now known, joined the government to make cigarettes cheaper. The first, a Chicago Boy 30 years late, the second, a nullity carefully constructed to appear as a hero.

There's an Education Minister who quotes Pablo Escobar. Another, the Foreign Minister, corroborates the thesis of left-wing Nazism. The Minister for Women, perched under the guava tree, fears what she calls "the traps of feminism."

There wasn't, strictly speaking, a single day of government.

Amid this despair, Bozo and his sons continue on Twitter, frantically, in a touching effort to appear alive and functional, without understanding that they are already dead.

They are incredibly stupid.
